The thing that drives me nuts here at Florida Tech is roommates. Roommates are always a package deal, and it's always the "stronger" roommate that chooses the sorority for them. We had an awesome girl come through who acted very interested but her roommate wanted XYZ. We didn't invite her roommate back to Pref so she turned down her invite and they both went XYZ. It's just kind of annoying that people can't think independently. My roommate and I went through Recruitment at the same time and were fully prepared to join different sororities. We both ended up being A Phi in the end, but I could have gone ABC all the way up until Pref.

I can see what you mean though about them making a weak sorority strong. There's a sorority here that's struggling that started off as a group of friends. If they had a group of girls come through and pick them up that would be awesome. I just hate it when girls who would really fit in better elsewhere follow their roommate.
